Mark 9:5

5 For he did not know what he was saying. For they were overwhelmed by fear. ^{▼▼9:5The phrase ‘timore exterriti’ is somewhat redundant; this type of redundancy indicates an intensification of the verb or noun. Therefore, they were not merely afraid, they were overwhelmed by fear (or dread).(Conte)}
